happy christmas!

it's been a minute since i had a day off just to be off. not to go to court or to a doctor appointment or some other appointment. i'm off for the next 6 days and i am loving it! presents are wrapped, well, most of them. i'm still waiting on a package! that's cuttin it close isn't it?? today is vannas birthday so we're gonna try to go to dollywood. tomorrow is her bday party at her parents and it's our annual candy making party. i'm making white trash which i am very excited about. sara's making caramel apples, vans making peppermint bark, marcia is making fudge and some peanut butter thingies and tammy is making rock candy! and of course there will be wine :)

this is what my morning looks like

looove wintersong. it's such a sad song but i love it so very much and it's not christmas without it.

i've got a book lined up to read this week if i have time and i'm making it my personal goal to take a bath in the actual bath tub! i've only been in that thing once since i've lived here.

 

it's cooooold outside! and it's posta snow flurry today! i love it!

 



ray

this is so awesome. i love everything that comes out of his mouth, singing or not. and i would have loved to have read those e mails between elvis and ray. i agree with elvis...there's only one ray. he's the best ever in the world and my number one favorite of all times and him and this song just make me melty. i never paid much attention to this song until i saw him live for the first time. people were screaming jolene after every single song the man would sing. i loved him before that night but oh man...there's absolutely nothing in the world like seeing him live and after that i was a goner. i will never ever forget leaving out of that place and not saying a word until we got to the car. then had to sit there a minute and say 'did that really just happen?'

i don't know if it was cause i had been too busy listening to all the other amazing songs of his or what but it was like i heard jolene for the very first time that night. jason mraz talks about him and tristan sitting at rays feet and weeping were his exact words and i think that's pretty much the same experience i had that night. its one of my most favorite memories in my entire life. i miss him and am super sad that i didnt get to see him in nashville last week. but my favorite thing...it's like that every time i see him. no matter if its been 2 years. its still as exciting and amazing and incredible and mind blowing as that first night. that's just how ray does it.
 

february seven

this lil song is special. i love that every time i listen to it i still love it as much as i did the first few times i heard it and got teary. the lyrics are just perfect for me. it minds me of a few summers ago when i went through my transformation. that's the only way i know to describe it. when he says 'when i awoke you were standing there', i see it as the new me standing there. this song is about myself.

and this is my favorite part..

I went on the search for something real. Traded what I know for how I feel. But the ceiling and the walls collapsed. Upon the darkness I was trapped. And as the last of breath was drawn from me... The light broke in and brought me to my feet.

YES!! it surely did! i've always said it feels like they write songs just for me and this one really does!! i love them.

and this video...i love that scott is all Christopher McCandless at the end of into the wild haha. and i even love that seth is needing a buffet these days instead of a sandwich. i just love them.

have i mentioned that i love them?

ohhhhh yeahhhh

This is SOO exciting!! The MOST exciting!!

">

it's the most wonderful time

i love december. lord how i do. november was of course whirl windy. thanksgiving was gone in a flash and so was my black friday. twas all wondy. what wasn't so wondy were the dreams i've been having. those ones. i hate them!! i wake up with such a strange feeling that doesn't go away all day. i had another last night. i'd love to know why they wont just go away and leave me alone. not a fan.

i'm also sad that my boy is going to be 14 in a couple weeks. where did the time go? he's a great kid and i'm so proud of the young lil man he's growing up to be, but where's my little little boy? the one that believed in santa and always wanted to leave out cookies? he's all grown up. when he was at the doctor last week he weighed 117. the same as me. i couldn't believe it! he's so tall and his voice has gotten so deep. makes a girl feel old. but he still gives lots of hugs and kisses and tells me he loves me. :)

i'm almost done with my christmas shopping which is awesomeee! mostly just stocking stuffs and a few lil things here and there. i love christmas shopping!! i love december!

another sad though...the walking dead mid-season finale was last night. sigh. no more walking dead until february. that's entirely too long!!!

i'll miss you guys!

 

anything could happen ♥

she is amaaazing. definitely crushing on her a little. love this lil video! she's a brave little toaster!

a few things

these are thouroughly making my day today.

 cannot wait for this

i'm excited about this

AND the black friday ads have leaked so i've been plotting my route. fun fun times! i am SO tempted to go to the movies on christams day to see les mis. i reeeeeaallllly want to. but i probably wont. those poor people that have to work on christmas. makes me sad. so i'll do my supportin the day after :)

 

Happy fall Friday!!

I fucking love this video!!! Every single second of it!!!

true love

I havent loved something so much in a good while.

 

Babel

Love! I didn't really expect to love this as much as I do. I knew I'd love it. But I love it!!! Their songs are really very lovely. They remind me of Iron and Wine in the way that their lyrics are poetry. I'm still sorting and learning but there are some very early favorites.

1- Not With Haste- Love Love Love.

2- I Will Wait - I must have something with getting attached to the first song I hear off an album because I have been in love with this song since the first time I heard it. I remember exactly where I was when I heard it and I still can't get enough.

3- Lover Of The Light - This song gets in my bones. And watching live videos of them performing it makes me sooo excited.

4- Ghosts That We Knew - It's so hard to put these songs in an order cause I love this one so much. Lovely lyrics.

5- Below My Feet - ♥♥ Thanks SNL for making me fall in love! This song was written for me I think. Makes me think of my lil awakening time. And makes me teary.

6- Lovers Eyes - Perfect

7- The Boxer - I have always loved this song. Even the Simon and Garfunkel version. But this song was made for them. I LOVE it!!

8- Reminder - His voice is charming. HE is charming and I love this song!

9- For Those Below - Should not be at the bottom!! This lil song makes me happy!!

10- Where Are You Now - Sad but awesome

11- Babel - I'm gonna say this one more time. These songs should ALL be at the top cause they're all fucking amazing!

12- Hopeless Wanderer - Love the way he says wanderer :) And I love this song!

13 - Holland Road - Catchy and awesome!

14- Broken Crown - This song reminds me of something that would be on Game of Thrones which of course makes me love it even more!!

15- Whispers In The Dark - Only because I haven't listened to it as close as all the others for some reason.

I will say this...it's still early for both of these albums. A month isn't very long so this could be taken back in the near future but...I am so surprised because out of the two: Mumford and Sons - Babel and The Avett Brothers - The Once and Future Carpenter, I think Babel is my favortie. And that kinda blows my mind. Didn't expect that. This is one of the best records I've ever heard, honestly. They are soooo great. EXCITING!!!

my october

i am blowing it!! it's my most favorite time of year and i have made no time to stop and enjoy it! i've been smothered in anxiety since the end of september. if it's not one thing to worry about it's another. i've had so many issues this month and i am OVER it! anxiety is such a pet peeve of mine. it's such a waste of time and when i finally come out of it i think...what was wrong with me? but it's not something easily overcome. it can be done, but it takes effort. so this is me saying that's enough!! i'm done with the anxiety! i want to snap out of it and enjoy things that are happening around me. take in the season and the things i love. thank the universe for music because i would probably be a mess if it wasn't for the music that's taken over this month. it's always the one thing i have to look forward to and to get lost in.

i am so thankful the house selling/buying experience is over. it ended up being no where near the grandness i had dreamed up in my mind. yes i am very thankful that i am able to buy a new home and yes i am thankful for everything i have. but it was not a wonderful amazing experience like i had hoped it would be. i'm just glad it's done. and now i'm impatiently waiting for things to settle down and resemble some sort of normalcy. i know that what i wanted and what i got are two different things, and i am dealing with not being bitter about the house i now live in. that's a terrible thing to admit, i know, but i'm being truthful and reading that makes me more aware of how bratty i'm being. being honest and saying it out loud helps me realize that i need to get a grip and be grateful. which i really am. my moms neighbors have the back of their house missing. rain,creatures,cold...anything and everything can get in. they cook over a fire and have no heat. i don't have problems. being bitter because i didn't get the exact house i wanted?? that's not me. i refuse to be that kind of person!! that's the kind of people that i cant handle and don't want to be around. savanna informed me that all iv'e done since we moved into this house is complain. i needed that lil slap in the face.

so..upward and onward. this weekend is the fall festival and i'm excited to be seeing gary allan. the rest is just meh. dakota is excited about train and darius rucker. i'm just excited about the food!! it's always my favorite part!

when i get a minute, i'll be posting before and after pics of the rooms i've painted in the house so far. it already looks so different. we're slowly getting there! furniture will help make it feel like home as well. right now its one big echo.

today, i am thankful for my nice new home and all the numerous blessings in my life. i am thankful for the people in my life that love me and make me a better person. i am thankful for the ability to see myself for how i really am and the desire and the know how to fix the things i don't like want or need. i am thankful that it's finally october and i'm very thankful for the new music that's happened. life is good!!

the best!

He won!! I was soo super excited that he won an Emmy for The Hatfields & McCoys. Sooo deserved. I was teary!

a sadness

I miss, love and dream of you. Sigh...

cannot wait!!!!!!

">

♥♥♥

Sooo Proud

He's the first solo. I couldn't be more proud of him. And yes, that's me crying that you hear. I think the whole row was crying haha. He sounds so little and sweet. And he nailed it!!

The Carpenter

It's such an exciting thing when the records you've waited so long for are exactly what you hoped they'd be. And it's so awesomely rare when you truly like every single song and can listen without skipping, ever.

I've been working on my little list and although I'm certain it will change and so many were ties, here is the current:

1- The Once and Future Carpenter. I think it's my favorite because it's the first song I heard off this album and was so in love and excited I'm just attached to it. And it's their story so that makes me love it even more. Their harmonies are so so lovely in this song.

2- February Seven. Ohh how I love this song. Right when it started playing Dakota and I looked at eachother and said 'this is gonna be a good one'. And it so was. I'm rested and I'm ready to begin!

3- Through My Prayers. Of course I cried when I heard it and that's always how you know it'll be a favorite. Such a sad song but with a great lil message. Seth is such a great singer. I don't know why he always surpises me, but he just keeps on doin it! If you have love in your heart let it show while you can!!

4- Live and Die. And it's funny that I wrinkled my nose the first time I heard this song. That always seems to change. I love this lil song sooo. Dakota has already claimed it for the talent show this year. Which I love. This is his number 1 he says.

5- A Fathers First Spring. Aww. This one made us all cry. I feel like it should be further up the list! Maybe switch with number 4 lol. The sweetest lil song ever. And Mr Lovely sounds wondy.

6- Down With The Shine. I have always loved this song. It's an oldie! I had a little obsession with it there back in the day when they were on the Tiny Desk Concert. Loved it at Bonnaroo too!

7- Pretty Girl From Michigan. Them and their pretty girl songs...I love Scotts voice in this song. Mmmmm. And it's fun to sing (:

8- Life. I have a feeling this one may move up the list. Love it!

9- Standing With You. Love this'n! I love Seths country accent. And it's such a sweet song. Makes me smile.

10- Paul Newman and the Demons. Dakota loves this song. I do too. You can definitely tell this is a Rick Ruben produced song. Which is awesome. It seems so far down the list!!

11- I Never Knew You. Again, it seems soo far down the list for as much as I like this song. But they've all gotta go somewhere.

12- Winter In My Heart. I've surprised myself with this one. You'd think it'd be at the top of the list. I love him so and it's a really pretty song, but it is such a downer. D O W N E R. It's like I listen to every other song on this cd with a smile on my face and this one comes on and the smile immediately vanishes. And for some reason its not one of those good sad songs like Through My Prayers that is sad in a good way. It's just depressing. I like it, but it brings me down.

13- Die Then Grow. As I was typing the number thirteen I thought wait!! I really like this song! haha

14- Geraldine. One has to come last. I do like this song. It's short and catchy and to the point. It's fun and *shrug* I like it!!


With all that being said, I love this record so so much. I'm ecstatic about it! I could go on forever gushing about them. And often do. Happy times!!! 

whew....

Rough day at work today. Some days it's easy to stay in my little bubble and just give off good vibes and let the negative bounce right off and then some days its not easy at all. So frustrating. I just want to shake people and scream WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU????

♥

LOVE!!!

these are mad times!

This is what my week looks like.

Then we close on the 28th on the new house. *sigh* It all makes me tired just thinking about it.

Avett Brothers - September 11
Mumford and Sons - September 25
Band of Horses - September 18
Tristan Prettyman - October 2
David Gray - Sometime soon I hope :)

Finally

Hopefully, the house selling/buying adventure is almost over. What an experience. I learned alot, was surprised alot and was disappointed alot. Watching years of HGTV had us dreaming big and very much beyond our price range. It took me a little to come to terms with that and bring the search down a notch. We also started out with every intention on getting a 15 year mortgage. Wrong again. We decided we didn't want to be married to our mortgage which we definitely would have been with a 15 year. The house we decided on is a great compromise. We had a very long list of MUST HAVES that got shorter and shorter as the search continued and the realization of what we were going to get for our money set in. This house has so many of the things on our wish list and it's the only house we've looked at that we all agreed on, so we did it! The location is great, the square footage is good, it has a dining room! (yay!) It's sort of in a subdivision, but not really. There's only 8 houses in there and it's a dead end culdesac. The yard is a great size and big enough for an in ground pool. Re-sale would be great. Even if we put in a pool and an outdoor kitchen we still wouldn't price out of the neighborhood. There's a place for a 'mancave' where the boys can play video games and guitar and do their own thing. The only thing I really had to compromise on for this house was the biggest thing. It's not old and charmy...but new and charmless.

It's funny though. Our realtor said you'll just know it when you find it and when we pulled in the driveway it just felt right. Even looking at the pictures now it seems like we've been living there for years. So...the next goal is: live here 10 years and then find my charmer. 10 years will be plenty of saving time, time to pay equity into this house, make it the way we want it, enjoy it and then find a retirement place that is EXACTLY what we want. This is a good next house. I think we made a great decision and did a pretty bang up job on working together and compromising.

As of now we'll be moving in September 29th.

my boy loves johnny cash. how proud!!

happy sunday

goodbye my little house

27 days until I have to be out of my little home. Scary and exciting and nervous and fun all at the same time. This is what we've saved for and waited for, but I can't help be anxious about it. This lil place has been perfect but the way it happened, I know it was meant to. That girl absolutely loved it and she seems like the right person for it. So, it's upward and onward. Now....where to?

sooo very excited!!!

Please hurry September 11th!! I've been patiently waiting all my life!

holy shit

Oh My

whew

wait a minute...

lol

I was just talking about us being on the fritz and then the first video I watch is this lil tasty and it all comes back to me. He IS my man. Damnit!




They have so sooo many awesome songs, but for some reason, this has always been my favorite. This was one of the first Black Keys songs I ever heard and from that instant I was head over heels.

on the fritz

Dan and I are going through somewhat of a rough patch right now. I still love him and he still loves me, but we're agreeing to see other people. Cause I cannot get enough of  THIS...

I just can't help it!

chaos!

I feel like my brain has turned to mush! I am better today, but the last two days I have been walking around in a fog. I have been so busy every minute my body was on strike I think. Tearing up floors and moving furniture and cleaning up messes from all the people that have been at my house every night helping. The past four nights I've cooked and cleaned up after 12. After working all day. It's been interesting for sure. I haven't had the best attitude, and that disappoints me. But my little mom helped me see the error of my ways. She reminded me that so many people would love to put down new floors but can't afford it. And that I'm lucky I even get to do projects like this. That I should be grateful. Yes!! She's exactly right! Thanks mom!

I also roped myself into entering the edible book contest at the library. I'm just nerdy like that. We always love to see all the entries. We look forward to it every year just like the nerds we so are. So..this year I made my own lil entry from The Help. When I dropped it off last night there were some pretty good ones. I don't expect to win goodness no, but it was really fun. Next year I won't be working under such chaotic circumstances I hope so I'll have more time to work on it. I had big dreams for my lil Help project and I didn't get to do most of them. It still turned out somewhat like I pictured it in my mind.

I feel like I need some time to step back from all that is going on and breathe a minute and remember things that I have forgotten. Not forgotten but when life gets super fast and crazy its easy to let things slip to the back of your mind or get lost in all the jumble that's floating around in there. Like...I forgot that I used to really like meditating. I took that one class on it and was fascinated with it and I really liked it. And then slowly I just forgot to do it. It really helped me when I was transitioning from my old job to my new. It helped to clear my head and I always felt more myself when I did it regularly.

I have also forgotten that happiness is a constant effort. It's something you DO. I've forgotten that a time or three. You have to find things that make you happy and make an effort to keep those things in your life. Keep up habits that make you happy and keep close objects or songs or foods that make you happy. I get sidetracked sometimes and get in a rut and I'll find myself looking around eventually thinking hey...where'd my happy stuff go? Then all I have to do is gather it up and dive back in. It's easy really, once I figured it out. Thank the Universe for Eat Pray Love, Jason Mraz, music in general and somewhat of a miracle for showing me those secrets. I'll never be the same :)

Something else I let slip a little, is that attitude is everything. It's easy when you're around people that don't share that same belief to get swept up in the negative. I've been working on that this week. I'm working on being thankful for what I've got and loving myself the way I am. That's what makes me happiest.

make my day!!

new!!

please hurry!!!

stuck

I'm pretty much in love with this song.

love love love

holy hellfuckinoh they're so good.

etsy crazy

I can't stop!

I can't wait to move!!!

hold on

Love them! So awesome! We missed everydamnthing!!

bonnaroo 2012

I hate that we missed it. We felt so weird all weekend. It's strange when you're apart of something like bonnaroo and then you're not there, it just isn't right. Feels like something was missing. We were sad and won't let it happen again (:

There are a few videos that make my heart roll around on the floor with sadness that I wasn't there.


They sound soo good. And his beard is back!


LOVE this!! I haven't heard them do this song in forever! There's so much energy going on that they can't contain it. Damnit! I am definitely having a love affair with Scott Yancey Avett.


O M G I think out of the three this makes me the saddest that I wasn't there. We fuckin missed it!! They are amazing. And her lil baby belly is just a jammin. ♥

still on a kick

I'm still really loving beautiful things. I must be really into the word beautiful these days. I catch myself saying 'now THAT is beautiful' or 'that's what beautiful looks like' and she↓ is definitely absolutely one of the most beautiful people I've eva seen in my entire 33 years of life.

Even though I didn't love the movie, I did love it cause she was in it. She's wondy.

GOT 6-3-2012 Finale!!

Lainey's Entertainment Update - Celebrity Gossip | Article Detail

I'm saddened that it's over. Only ten measly episodes a season is just no where near enough for a show like this. There's so much story to tell! I disagree with Lainey for once though, I thought the finale was awesome. Maybe I'm just biased.

I do agree with several things she said though...

The scenery in this episode was lovely. And my favorite part was the scene with Drogo. It was real in my world damnit! I didn't want it to end and I know that's probably the last time I'll see him. Sadness.

"While by and large the stories were compelling and dramatic I was also delighted with the amount of humor here.  Theon Greyjoy no longer laments his own certain death, he just wants to figure out how to cut the head off the horn blower.  I have to pause and point out how excellent I think Alfie Allen has been here" YES!! I cannot stand to look at him most times, but he is an excellent actor. Especially in this episode.

And the White Walkers.... what?? I was expecting something else. They didn't look scary enough. Or the one on the horse didn't. And they could/should have been!!

The house of the dead should have been more. I agree that things were way too easy for Khaleesi. But I honestly think that's to blame on so little episodes. They have to cram so many things into the 10 there are. Ah well. I"m just glad all that craps over and she can get the hell out of Quarth.

Arya is still a badass

and Tyrion is still a hero and steals it. ♥

Nonetheless...I love this show muchly much and will miss it terribly.

Episode 20 - Inside the Episode

Sooooo awesome!

God I love this! And I mean love!! SU PERB!

I have thought about this so much this weekend. I am in love with it! I know Kevin Costner loves history and westerns and I love that he had so much to do with the making of this. It definitely shows. This is his best performance of his career by far in my opinion. So sooo good. He even did the music for this and I LOVE it!!! Every single thing was perfect. The costumes, the furniture, the accents, the scenery, the facial expressions. This shit better win an award for something!

I WILL have this on blu-ray asap!

50 shades

I think it's so neato that I read these stories when they were just lil ole fan fictions. Now they're big bad books! And even though the names have been changed and some things have been left out or switched around, they're just as awesome as they were when they were about Edward and Bella. Cool!

whoa

For some reason I always get excited about Cannes. I just love it. And little miss is looking extra fine her first time there.

GOT 5-28-12

Lainey's Entertainment Update - Celebrity Gossip | Article Detail

Even though I was out of state and rather tipsy, I still had to pause and watch my show. AMAZING last night. So sad next weeks the end. The kids in this show are ridiculously talented.

Every Time!

This shit makes my day every single time it comes on.

GOT 5-20-12

Lainey's Entertainment Update - Celebrity Gossip | Article Detail

Arya and Tyrion still steal the show IMO. Next week looks awesome.

The List

I have a huge 'to read' list. As always. But right now, this particular few I have lined up are sssuper exciting. I mean...call in sick to work just to read kind of List. The List always stays unrealistic. Like 30 books that I want to read at a time. And it always keeps growing so I'm never catching up. So I put them all in a huge List and just keep the ones I want to read most at the top. I've talked before about said List and the more time goes by the bigger it grows and the more anxiety I get from it. But I love it.

So.. I just started this tasty lick

Next on the list...

and then..

YES!!!
OMG I get so overly excited about quacking books!!!!

so very beautiful

teary

I love music (:

never gets old

I have a dentist appointment this morning so I am off today. I'm very much enjoying my quiet morning, actually drinking coffee out of a real mug rather than my little trusty travel mug that I take to and from work each day. Ahh it's the little things.

I've been stuck on several songs for the past couple of weeks and can't seem to get unstuck. Not that I'm complaining ♥ So I like to stick em here to look back later and remember what was on repeat at this time. Oldies but wondys, that's whats on repeat!!!

I love them so very fucking much.

Lainey's Entertainment Update - Celebrity Gossip | Article Detail

I always look forward to Monday morning if only to read Laineys recap of Game of Thrones. I love to see if we have the same opinions and interpretations. *sigh* I love this damn show.

love is MORE than a four letter word ** ETA

it's weird how we put so much faith in people we've never even met. not just faith but we take inspiration and encouragement from complete strangers. i guess it's just as weird that we can be disappointed in those same people. when you listen to someones music for so long, many years, the most important years of your life, they become a part of you. not just their songs, but the 'them' that you know them to be. and things like my favorite books and my favorite songs and albums and musicians are important and dear to me and when you hold someone so dear, it's never good when they let you down. which isn't fair to say, really. but it's still true nonetheless. i guess that's just the way humans are. it's weird how feelings can affect the way you hear certain songs. i'm referring to jason mraz and his new album love is a four letter word. i've been a jason mraz fan for a good 10 years or more. actually more than just a fan. honestly, i probably shouldn't have listened to glass jar right before i listened to the new jason record. i was so teary and sad and let down and all i could think to say was "it makes me feel like he's a phony." and that makes me so sad. i know that that's not a fair statement to make about someone i've never met and that i can't base his breakup with tp on what kind of person he is in general and especially because i've done the same thing in the past, but it has affected the way i've viewed this record. for whatever reason i just can't take his words as seriously and to heart like i have every other time. and that kind of breaks my heart. of course i still think he's probably the most talented person on planet earth and i love his voice with all my heart but he's let me down and it's just not the same. it's like a family member when you're really upset with them. you love them, but sometimes you just don't like them very much. maybe that's stupid and silly, but i always review my favorite albums when they come out and i guess this is my review of this one. **favorites: 93 million miles, living in the moment, the world as i see it, 5/6, everything is sound i currently have a love/hate thing with i wont give up, so...

glass jar

This makes me sad. For a few reasons. I love it, but hate it at the same time.

Lainey's Entertainment Update - Celebrity Gossip | Article Detail

I think Lainey and I are kin. We probably have twin brains. Or something. This lil post makes me sooo so excited. But she's mistaken cause she's MY Khalessi. But every thing else I agree with almost 100.

Sunday night!!!!!

Welp...

My son is definitely a teenager. He's had girlfriends before but i think this is his first little love. Not only has he changed his status to married on facebook, but he's going to the mall on Saturday to 'hang out' for her birthday. And not only is he worrying about what he's going to wear but he's asked me for thirty dollars. I laughed. He has never asked me for money before. Not really. I've met this girl and I do approve. Oh boy....here we go.

beautiful

The early 1900s. The clothes, the cars and especially the houses.

Especially the houses...
